Frequently Asked Questions

Tell me More!

Locked In A Room is a live escape-room experience. Participants are locked in a room with a series of tests, puzzles and clues that combined allow the unlocking of the rooms mystery and hopefully a successful escape, challenging them every step of the way.

As you enter the room you will initially stand there bewildered and then… IT BEGINS!

How much does it cost?

We are priced at £30 per player with discounts available for teams of 18 or more. We also offer a 10% student discount (ID required) and a 10% discount for NHS, Armed Forces and Emergency Services employees (ID required).

What makes us different?

We are the only escape venue in Europe that can enable a large group up to 78 players to race against each other simultaneously. This considerably adds to the pressure, excitement and adrenaline rush, as if it wasn’t tense enough already!

We have made a HUGE effort to theme the venue throughout, so much so that we have been approached by both music and television companies to use our facilities as a backdrop. Our props are original wherever possible from the floor to the ceiling, perfect for setting that eerie scene…

How long is the event?

While you are locked in for a maximum of 60 minutes, the event has the total running time of approximately 90 minutes. We also ask that you are at the venue ready to go 10 minutes before your time slot.

Am I really locked in a room?

You may leave the room at any time you wish through an unlocked door. Your personal game controller is monitoring your entire experience so it is perfectly safe.

Do you have any wheelchair access/chairs in the rooms?

We have disabled friendly toilets, the venue is on one floor and all rooms have ample seating to take a moment to relax. Please call the office for more information.

I’m Pregnant! Can I still play?

Yes, of course. There are no physical challenges in any of our games and we have provided seating in all of the rooms should anyone need to take a break. It’s also worth noting that you are not actually locked inside of a room, you are free to leave at any point during the game through an unlocked door.

Are there any flashing lights?

Smoke, music and actors are all included in our package however at no point in any of our games will there be strobing lights.

How many people can be in a room?

We like to make sure everyone has a great time and that of course includes safety therefore we limit our rooms from a minimum of 2 to a maximum of 6 players. Have more than 6 players? Play head to head! It’s much more fun and what we specialise in!

Can I make a booking and pay on the day?

Unfortunately, we are not able to book rooms out without some form of payment, however if you call our lovely sales office on 01179 291759 you could secure your event by paying a deposit and pay the rest at the venue on the day. As we are a live event we STRONGLY recommend booking in advance to avoid disappointment. On the day availability is available by calling our sales office on 01179 291759 however we can’t always promise a room will be available.

Do I have to be in the room with my kids (under 14’s) or can I just be in the building?

We probably shouldn’t be trusted with The Professor’s precision equipment, and we definitely should not be left in charge of young, impressionable scientists!
We will need you to have 1 responsible adult (18+) for each room if there will be Escapees younger than 14 and under.
